1956 Map of San Francisco South

About this map

Colma and the southern reaches of the San Francisco City and County boundary define this landscape in the mid-1950s. The region is characterized by a high concentration of memorial parks and burial grounds, including the Italian Cemetery, Serbian Cem, and Chinese Cemetery, reflecting the area's specialized land use near the Southern Pacific line. The urbanization of the Sunset District and Bayshore contrasts with the massive industrial and military footprints of the Naval Reservation at Hunters Point and the evolving San Francisco International Airport.
